Paul Green....
Ex-Rovers midfielder Paul Green faces up to nine months on the sidelines as damage to his cruciate knee ligaments was confirmed yesterday.
The Republic of Ireland internaitonal twisted his knee duirng Saturday's 4-1 defeat at Cardiff City, and had a scan on his knee earlier this week, when a tear to his anterior cruciate ligament was confirmed, along with damage to medial ligaments.
This is the first serious injury that Green has sustained during his career, and we wish him well for as speedy as possible a recovery, but Derby's medical staff fear he could be out of action for between six and nine months.
Better news from Derby relating to former Rovers players suggest that Gareth Roberts' knee injury is not as serious as feared, and that he may be fit to play in their match this weekend against Coventry City. It had been feared that Roberts also had cruciate ligament damage from playing in last Saturday's game, but a scan revealed otherwise.
